image Q. 23 - Radius injury

Q.  The below image shows fracture of radius diaphysis with deformity. All the deformities require correction by performing opposite action except


a. Shortening
b. Angulation
c. Displacement
d. Bowing
e. Rotation



































































































Answer -
d

The length, alignment and rotation are corrected for good union and outcome.
Radial bowing, however is anatomical characteristic of radius and requires no correction; and in fact the aim of all the treatment is to restore or maintain the normal bowing of radius.
